Hi Lauren,

Thanks very much!  I won't be taking up as much space very soon. ;-)

 Well, that is just fantastic news.  You make it sound like a breeze.  I am so glad everything is going so well for you.  Congratulations, loser!

Thanks so much!  It really was a breeze.  Dr J is worth waiting for!  I'm saving you a seat on the bench right next to me!  Hope to see you at one of the support groups.  I'll be at the one at the Sheraton Sonoma County Petaluma on 7/19.

Be well,

Wow Jan, I think that was the most comprehensive surg notes I've ever read outside of reading someones op report!!  LOL  I'm so thrilled for you.   

You're doing great and everything sounds totally normal.  You're drinking your shakes, your water and walking walking walking!  Yeah!!!!!  Keep on going and you're going to be doing great!!!  xo  Kim

Thanks Kim,

I tried to get it all down so folks would know what it was like.  For me, knowledge quells fear.  I hope it will help others going down the road after me. :)

1.35 miles so far. lol
